Hot Take:

Looks like the skies aren’t the only thing Air France and KLM need to keep secure. With customer service platforms facing turbulence thanks to data breaches, maybe they should consider offering frequent flier miles for every personal data breach! After all, nothing says “loyalty program” quite like a little identity theft. On the bright side, it seems passwords and passport info were safely stored in their own first-class compartment, away from prying digital eyes.

Key Points:

  • Air France and KLM experienced a data breach affecting customer service platforms.
  • No sensitive data like passwords or travel details were compromised.
  • Compromised data includes names, emails, phone numbers, and rewards info.
  • The breach was reported to relevant data protection authorities.
  • Speculation about ShinyHunters being the cyber villains behind the attack.
